The median price for the Reno-Sparks region in February was $265,000 which was a 5% increase from January, and a 13 ½% increase over February of 2014. According to statistics by the Reno-Sparks Association of REALTORS, values have risen 96% since the bottom of the market in January 2012. From the peak of the market in January 2006, values are still off 27.4%.
Since September of last year, the average days on market has been increasing. However, the days on market dropped from 125 in January to 109 in February, a 13% decrease. This is also a 5% decrease from February 2014. It’s interesting to note that 75% of new listings taken in January are currently either sold or have a pending sale. A sign to potential buyers that properties are not remaining on the market long, and a sign to sellers, that homes priced right are moving quickly. The number of Days on Market historically declines through spring and summer.
Our local market has remained consistently in a seller’s market for 26 of the past 28 months.
